And if they key off constitution, then it just further incentivizes being this big meaty hp sponge.
I still think that all the game balance concerns about constitution-based casters are just way overblown and 3.5 and 5e were fools for not having some. 4th edition had constitution-based warlocks and it served to give the class a very unique sort of niche.

Besides, "the limit on my powers is not how much I can command, the limit is how much my patron can force through my body before it breaks" is just great flavor.
